I tried to debug this in firebug. When i used firebug it shows the
proper response so i an cluseless on why it's not showing on my page

why my results are not being displayed????????

<?php

What's the best way to find these two fields

Hey there, I've got a Campaigns model which belongs to a Charities
model. When a user signs up they are meant to first pick a charity the
id of which gets passed along to the regCampaigns function in the
Campaigns controller.

I'm trying to get three fields from the record of the charity they
picked (the $id which was passed), but I'm not sure how to do this
properly within the campaigns controller.

I've tried read, find, findById and have tried with containable
behaviour but for the life of me can't get just the three fields into
an array.

The fields are id (which I obviously already have) and image_url and
charity_name. I've been trying variations of:
$campCharity = $this->Campaign->Charity->read(array('image_url',
'charity_name'), $charity);
$this->set('campChar', $campCharity);

which is the best so far but it still tries to return all the
campaigns associated with the charity.

I know it's probably dead simple but I've been reading stuff for hours
and it's frustrating :(

Re: Caching

Why not just cache your data instead of the view? Caching the view is
pretty much just stepping in its place.

Re: Best practise? Creating a detailed data report from different linked models?

Michael,

You could certainly have a Reports controller. The expectation would
be that it is operating on the Report model. This seems pretty
unlikely given the information so far. More likely you are wanting a
report on data in some other model (like Project or Customer or ...)
and it's related models.

Starting with the assumption that you want to generate reports on the
model Project, you would want a report action in your Projects
controller. A simple example would be this:

function report() {
  if(!empty($this->data)) {
     $report = $this->Project->find('all', array('conditions'=>'your
conditions', 'contain'=>'fields you want'));
     $this->set('report', $report);
  }
}

In the folder app/views/projects/ you would store your file report.ctp
This file would output a form so the user can control and modify
reports. Also have this file output a formatted report if data is
available to do so. User the Form Helper to generate the form on your
page (http://book.cakephp.org/view/1383/Form).

Given this setup the user would get to the page at http://yoursite.com/projects/report

The report action in your Project controller looks to see if it was
being provided with posted data. On the first visit there would be

Re: Caching

Jeremy

Yes, Miles is quite right. If it is practical enough, you should push
enough data (as much data as you expect to be dynamic) about your
navigation structure into the view and let CakePHP cache the view.
Since views are made of PHP opcodes, they still store the variable
values with them once they're cached, therefore you can manipulate
them without the need of executing your controller callbacks.

Cheers,
OJ

Auth is a component, so yep, as a controller extension it is only
available inside the controller. As a Mike suggested, you can find the
user and log them in from the controller without a http post request,
or you could even just recreate the session that auth expects and then
redirect to another page (not login though).
